Of course I remember that field! I had lots of fun there. Somehow I though the distances were larger than that. Guess when it is 4000 feet long, it is easy to ignore the width!

Roger, *I* did not and do not consider that to be an unsafe condition, nor did I intend to imply that. However the question is what do the current AMA RULES say.

This is one of those gottcha's where all the good intentions of trying to protect me from Harry Hoverfortypercenter STILL nuke the average guy. I happen to think that needs to be looked at more carefully and maybe even reworded so that any manuevers EXCEPT take off and landings must occur some distance away. Consider how unclean it would have been if that Cub had been over the centerline.
